CONGRATULATIONS to ABC Printhouse - 3rd place in the Wissa Long Distance Kiting World Championship 2017! Awarded for an early morning and fighting all the way, Jarle Hetland and Kristoffer Evensen crossed the finish line in Vardø at 8:10 - 2 minutes before Team Sideshore..!

CONGRATULATIONS to Team Sweden - 2nd place in the Wissa Long Distance Kiting World Championship! Simon Jaktlund and Richard Wernersson crossed the finishing line at 17:54 today, 2 hours and 3 minutes after Team Windytv Alpboys. The motivation and sportsmanship this team shows is remarkable. We know they had a tough morning and this silver medal is very well deserved. Go Sweden!

If Wednesday was slow, this Thursday has been even slower... But we got the World Champions Windytv Alpboys to Vardø at 15:51 and the silver medalists Team Sweden in at 17:54! Hard day, hard race, they own these medals. Kudos to all teams out there refusing to give up although they signed up for the Long Distance Kiting World Championship - not the Ultra Trail du Varanger Peninsula with way to heavy gear #vake2017 #wind #please
